An electromagnet is a piece of metal that can be affected by magnetism (usually iron) that is wrapped in a electric conducting thread or wire (usually copper wire.) A really easy way to make an electromagnet yourself is to take a iron nail and wrap it in some copper wire. Then just connect the two ends of the wire and connect it to a AA battery. Test it by using the end of the nail to pick up some paper-clips and such.
